Marat Safin Quote
It's a pity that the tennis is really going down the drain. Every year it's getting worse and worse and worse. There has to be a radical change, and I hope it will be really soon.

About Marat Safin
Safin received four ATP Awards: 1998 Newcomer of the Year, 2000 Most Improved Player, and the 2001 and 2002 Fans' Favourite. When he first reached the world No. 1 ranking in November 2000, he became (at the time) the youngest No. 1 in the Open Era. Safin retired from the sport in November 2009. In 2016, he became the first Russian tennis player inducted into the International Tennis Hall of Fame. Safin is also the older brother of former women's world No. 1 player Dinara Safina; they are the only brother-sister tandem in tennis history to have both achieved No. 1 singles rankings.
In 2011, Safin became a member of the State Duma representing the United Russia party.
